Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Can words in LibreOffice be auto-italicized?

Hi :)
Lol, yes.  Been there.  Done that!  Undo is pretty good these days tho (Ctrl Z).  The trick is 
trying to use spaces and things to make it specific enough.  In Gedit (a text-editor) there is a 
"find all" type feature that high-lights all instances of the thing searched for and it's very 
clear which one is the 'active' one.   Still it's all to easy to see a document disintegrate.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Tom, I appreciate your kind reply.
I /have /used find & replace successfully, but I honestly hadn't thought of
autocorrect. It's been several years since I experimented with that,
actually, and I guess I need to try using it before I ask someone to
reinvent the wheel, huh?
Find & replace works well enough, but I'm always just a tad nervous my
parameters will allow the program to alter something I didn't intend to. As
in, I replace all instances of "and" with "&", and then my text reads, "Joe
sighted l& after four days. Upon reaching the shore he wiggled his toes in
the s&." 
I am well capable of far worse errors, I assure you.
